eh plus

You know those concerts where everyone's in synch, the artist, the musicians, the audience, and the sound is so pristine you could actually be at home, CD on the player, eyes closed? Have you ever been to a concert where the back-up singers were so good that you came home and ordered their solo work from iTunes? Has narrative songwriting ever been so intelligent, thoughtful, funny and profound? Have you ever been to a concert where an older man two rows behind you was singing every lyric of every song and random women were shrieking declarations of love from all areas of the auditorium - orchestra, lodge, mezzanine? Have you ever been to a concert where a grey-haired, big-nosed, 75-year old man oozed more charm and sex appeal than Brad Pitt? Where you could hear a pin drop during an impromptu poetry recital? Where standing ovations occurred after each song? 

THAT was the Leonard Cohen concert and I am so grateful that I was there!
